We've had a lot going on the last couple of days. We had Rodeo Break at the end of the month, and we just had AIMS testing Tues and Wednesday of this week. So the class on Monday read the first sections of Chapter 20 (tobacco) and then with AIMS we began watching Thank You For Smoking. Today (Thursday) we nearly finished the movie. The students had a JOURNAL ENTRY: That asked their opinion on smoking and the use of smokeless tobacco.
I will be collecting the Journal entries tomorrow and the students were encouraged to seek out this site to make sure they had all the journal entries given, and reminded that each journal entry needs to be one paragraph in length for full credit.
Health Articles are due tomorrow, as I made an exception for the AIMS testing this week. Grades were updated and posted today.
